Change SQL Server Instance

To integrate MS SBA 2007 with Outlook 2003 Business Contact Manager, the
process states that the two applications should use the same SQL Server
instance.

BCM installs using instance MICROSOFTSMLBIZ (v8.0.2039). SBA installs using
instance mssmlbiz (v9.0.2047). When I changed SBA to use MICROSOFTSMLBIZ, it
would not successfully complete a company creation process. It would create
a company using the original instance. Suspect this is an SQL Server
instance version issue.

The question is - how to change the instance that BCM uses (from
MICROSOFTSMLBIZ to mssmlbiz) so the two products can be integrated.

Thanks in advance,

Integration process from SBA 2007 should take care of this for you
automatically.

I haven't actually tested using SBA 2007 with BCM 2003, but it works very
nicely with BCM 2007. :-) I'll add this to my list of things to test.
